While I now realize that there is a difference in the type (wellness, problem, treatment) of visit influencing treatment and medicare reimbursement, the booking staff did a poor job of explaining and booked me In appointment that was Inappropriate. The MA's also explained It poorly to begin with. On presentation It Is more like trying to get the client to make a medical coding decision. Wellness visit It seems Is only talking about how well you are and no concerns or problems (new) are allowed. To me this is still ridiculous. I won't ever be talked into a wellness visit again. .

Brandon Young is THE best physician I have ever had in my life. So comfortable with him, he listens, knows what he's talking about and makes you feel comfortable. I am in very good care.

Dr. Young is a strong asset to the Legacy group, despite being somewhat limited by its bureaucratic issues and "by committee" structure. (My comment, not his).
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr Young is a good listener. He is knowledgeable on the issues we discuss related to my health and shows personal interest in my physical well being. He is quick to respond to all my questions I post on the Legacy app. I highly recommend him to others as a well informed GP.

Dr Young listens well and has helped me with the pharmacist get my A1C down from9.3 to 6.1 and manage a diet that has let me lose ~60 lbs. Using my chart to communicate always get Buick response and direction on a course of action

They were 2 receptionists at the desk when I arrived. The male receptionist was helping a patient, but the female one was not helping anyone and looked like she was just sitting there. She left me standing at the front of the line instead of calling me over to check me in. I had to wait until the man was free and called me over. Then she just looked at me, then turned away and just sat there looking around. Didn't look like she was doing anything. It delayed getting me in to see my doctor unnecessarily. Everyone else in the office, including the man that checked me in, was very helpful and friendly.

Overall I got a good result from this unit. Please ask Care Oregon to add Dr .Brandon Young (or Legacy Medical Group) as my PCP and submit new insurance card.

Dr. Young listened to my concerns and acted upon them. Very easy to talk to.

He listened carefully and fully answered my questions. Very pleased with the visit

Dr. Young listened to my concerns about foot pain. He referred me for a same-day x-ray and to a podiatrist. Though not a specialist in foot care he looked up information on his computer. We didn't discuss the Calcium scan I had paid for out of pocket. I forgot to mention it, but since the scan didn't show any problems, that is fine.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Young always listens. He has excellent "bedside manner." Smiles, good eye contact. Very knowledgeable.

I called on [date removed] with an emergency and the doctor on call got back to me and was helpful. The central lab did not do one of the tests ordered. Dr young followed up and it got done quickly
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Young delivers excellent medical advice, is compassionate, and listens well. He is a great addition to the Legacy Medical Group!
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Young saw me promptly about a health concern I had. He listened carefully, clearly had a good knowledge of my history, and provided a care plan that made good sense to me and has subsequently improved my health. He offered good follow up and also addressed a couple routine care items while I was there. I have already recommended him to friends and my wife has started care with him as well.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Young is great! He is attentive to my personal and medical history. He is responsive w/ orders and communicating via secure messaging. His team is friendly, polite, and respectful. I have no complaints and am very appreciative for their time and care.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Young is a wonderful doctor and went the extra mile with my husband; when his own doctor did not. Dr. Young had testing done the day of his appt. He would be dead now if not for Dr. Young.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
The lab draw visit was absolutely the opposite. They did not appear to be busy at all but I cooled my heels for a very long time - they were visiting with each other - fine but not to the extent that they did.I could not get x-rays ordered after the lab draw.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Young is at the pinnacle of professional performance! He always responds, cares about patients and is incredibly knowledgeable!
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Once an appointment can be made, the experience is good. But, this was a first visit and it took a long time to get in. Also, the Pacific Source website is misleading. In looking for a provider, I was focused only on those who was accepting new patients. However, most times, the provider was not accepting new patients when I called.

Dr. Young is a very caring person and a pleasure to work with.

Doctor listens well and is responsive in helpful ways. He Is down to earth and has a sense of humor. Importantly, he is honest about what he does not know and Is careful with his Notes. He does not seem to be overwhelmed by the complexity of my case. I knew right away he was The One. Finally!

I am very grateful that Dr. Young - and his colleagues at Good Samaritan accepted me into their care - after my previous clinic shut down during the pandemic, heroes - all!

For my first experience with the Legacy system I was extremely impressed.

Dr. Young was excellent! He was very knowledgeable, listened to me, explained the reasons for his diagnosis, and referred me to a specialist to further evaluate one of my health concerns. I feel like he is a person who naturally builds good rapport with his patients and other people. After my appointment he followed up with messages on My Health. I'd definitely see him again!!!! What a thoughtful and thorough doctor.

The office cubicle where the visit took place is a disgrace to Legacy. The floor is worn out and looks like it needs to be refurbished asap.A new coat of paint would also be helpful. Dreary surroundings are not conducive to feeling helped by medical professionals.

Dr Young was covering for my primary who had National Guard duty. I was there for a follow up after a pneumonia DX. I really appreciated how prepared he was being the first time we met. My negative experience has to do with the details of my visit summary. It showed my weight at 174 lbs which is not correct. I have worked hard to get out of the obese category to overweight and have accomplished that. I asked the nurse to covert my kg to lbs. She showed me it was 163.5. I am sure it was just a typo or somethingbut this is a sensitive subject and it was upsetting
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Doctor Is good at listening. He is prompt with following up on any questions or Issues I have asked, or emailed him about. If he didn't have the answer to any of my questions, at the time, he made sure to get one back to me promptly. I only had 1 problem on my last visit..when sent to the lab for a blood draw, per the doctor's instruction, it took 45 minutes. The lab said that they had to wait for specific instructions as to what blood tests the doctors office wanted ordered for me.

Dr. Young was very personable and easy to talk to. He is a good listener and asked appropriate questions. I saw him for a pre surgical visit for cataract surgery and I don't know how much of a physical exam is required. He did a brief cardiopulmonary exam.

Friendly, attentive, included my perspectives, was guided by me rather than the other way around.

From talking to the nurses Lori and Brooke who helped me move up my appointment to the receptionist and the great MA Kimberly I felt listened to and cared for.

He explained the plan carefully and has been amazing at following up by phone & message as we work through this problem. I am very appreciative!

Always love reaching out to Dr. Young. He is the most responsive and understanding primary care physician I have had.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
Dr. Young had a student with him. The student came in and spent over 30 minutes with me which I thought was odd normally the doctor comes in with the student, introduces them and they do the visit together. After the student left he told me he was going to get the doctor and I had to wait another 35 minutes to see my doctor. This visit took forever I was there for a total of an hour and 45 minutes which is ridiculous. It was a waste of my time to sit there and basically have a practice appointment with the student before I actually got to see my MD. There's got to be a better way to do that.

This was my first visit with Dr. Young to establish care. I had the same doctor for over 20 years who retired and I was somewhat apprehensive. Dr. Young was really wonderful and put me at ease right away. He knew my medical record, and was respectful in talking with me. I feel fortunate to have found a doctor I believe will be really engaged in my health care. I have already recommended him to family and friends.
